Krishna fostered what was really beneficial to Arjuna; He paid full consideration to what will really promote the reputation, the Atma-ananda (bliss) and the Dharma (Right Conduct) of Arjuna. He tended and fended Arjuna as the very breath of His own life; He watched over Arjuna as one watches over the eye or the heart, and thus transformed him by teaching him about holy things. Krishna loved Arjuna beyond compare; that is the nature of a genuine Guru. Arjuna too was no ordinary being; he bowed in humility to Krishna and carried out sincerely the assignments from Him. Whatever the crisis, he stuck to Krishna's command and word; he wore the comradeship with the Lord as the armour that will save him from all harm, as the very body in which he dwelt, as something which he must foster, strengthen and guard. This is how Guru and Sishya (disciple) should be bound together.
Krishna telah membantu perkembangan yang benar-benar bermanfaat bagi Arjuna; Beliau memberikan perhatian penuh untuk apa yang sebenarnya akan meningkatkan reputasi (nama baik), Atma-ananda (kebahagiaan) dan Dharma (Kebajikan) bagi Arjuna. Beliau merawat dan menjaga Arjuna bagaikan nafas hidup-Nya sendiri, Ia mengawasi Arjuna bagaikan mengawasi mata atau hati-nya, dan mentransformasi Arjuna dengan mengajarinya tentang hal-hal yang suci. Krishna mencintai Arjuna tiada tara, inilah sifat seorang Guru sejati. Arjuna juga bukanlah manusia biasa, ia membungkuk dengan kerendahan hati untuk Krishna dan dilakukan dengan tulus sebagai tugas dari-Nya. Apa pun krisis yang terjadi, Arjuna selalu mematuhi perintah dan kata-kata Krishna, ia menjalin persahabatan dengan Tuhan bagaikan baju besi yang akan menyelamatkannya dari segala bahaya. Inilah bagaimana Guru dan Sishya (murid) harus terikat bersama-sama.
